access denied using rexec.exe

trying to run a remote command to a Windows 2008 server using rexec. (for testing). Ultimately we will be running the command from an IBM i system 520 using runrmtcmd. Right now when I enter the command rexec 10.3.9.39 -l remotecmd remotecmd (username and password are the same)
the response I get back from the server 10.3.9.39 is access denied. Anyone have any ideas?

I plan to work on this Monday. I will try your first suggestion, rshsvr .

We are in a domain, and I have tried d\u format, but the iseries errors out, says the username field can only be 10 characters -- My domain name only exceeds 10 characters. I plan to try this -- Physically logon to the server as the domain\ibm, then try to run the command using 'ibm' as the user. Maybe the connection will pass through, since both users have the same password. I have also created a local 'ibm' user on the 2008 server.

Disabled the firewall.

Psexec -- I believe I have seen this used to aid the installation of unix printers on windows.
